One of the protesters said she was told it was an acting gig.
The group of roughly two dozen supposed protesters immediately raised suspicions of media outside the courthouse on Monday, the first day of extradition proceedings. The group held signs bearing identical slogans: “Free Ms. Meng,” “Bring Michael home,” “Trump stop bullying us,” and “Equal justice.” The handwriting on each sign was the same. Those who held them refused to answer questions.
“At the moment, I still thought it was an actor or someone,” she said. “I still thought, okay, maybe they want extra material from the background actors. But after two or three questions, I obviously noticed that she was a professional journalist with professional equipment, asking real questions. That’s when I totally freaked out.”
There's a video:
China is still controlling people, even in Canada.
😂All 3 signs have the same handwriting. So grassroot.
china mainland is a poop country ChinaEmbOttawa should just perma ban mainland chinese from Canada.
Unknowingly hired to wave a sign?
Actors hired to protest? I’m shocked I tell you! The story isn’t that there are hired “actors” showing up to protests, the story is WHO is paying them? Not just in this case but in others across the country.
How much they pay? I want to sign-up!
Canada has one of the greatest Gig worker programs around the protest industry of anywhere in the world.
I'm gonna apply with Huawei 😇
So, paid protesters... ...surprise, surprise.
